I think the best part of the article (besides the decision of course) is the following:
“A Strike 3 Holding investigation found that 47 IP addresses belonging to Meta were used to torrent 2,396 of its videos a total of 6,008 times between 2018 and 2025.”
If videos are being downloaded more than once, it’s hard to argue it’s just for model training. lol.

That’s 2396 x 6008 x $150,000=$2.159 Billion
And honestly, that’s what they need to do. $450M is a cost of business expense.

$150,000 fine per civil infringement X 6,008 instances… $901,200,000.
Now assume a settlement for half the value and it’s still $450M
Do it porn industry! On principle.
